I applied online and a recruiter reached out to me. They set up an interview for me in the next 2 days. My background is in Computer Science, specifically software. The interview seemed to focus entirely on OS and CN concepts. I could answer everything, but the interviewer wasn't very clear.

So there were 5 rounds in total. First was a technical aptitude round focusing on C++ and C with 5 quant questions. Then came the First Technical Interview where they asked about Data Structures like link lists, sorting, queues, stacks, and also some resume content, specifically Linux. The Second Technical Interview covered Networking, OSI and TCP-IP models, CDMA algorithm, my projects, and some tricky technical questions. After that, there was a Management Interview with puzzles and some networking questions. Finally, the HR Interview, which was pretty easy, covered 'about me', my projects, location preferences, and general stuff.
